Answer to Question 1

Answer: 2
Explanation: 2. When faced with a financial crisis, the nurse can help the family by contacting social service agencies about emergency funds the family can use during this time. Referring to the local church does not indicate that financial help is available. Finding employment for other family members may not be appropriate because ages are not given. Arranging for home health does not address the financial crisis.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 2
Explanation: 2. Sociocultural determinants play a role in poverty, homelessness, and their effects on health. Lack of affordable housing, social support and welfare reform, mobility, and employment are societal conditions that contribute to poverty and homelessness. Home environment is a physical environment factor. Mental illness is a psychological factor. Age is a biophysical factor.
